An examination of the Vatican's bizarre processes for investigating and assessing candidates who are up for canonization. There is a team of experts whose job it is to review potential saints, and the author takes the reader inside the world of saint-makers - the lawyers, cardinals, theologians and physicians who unobtrusively sift through bizarre, miraculous, quiet and heroic lives to determine who will be beatified and canonized by the Pope. Winner of a National Magazine Award, the author is religious editor for "Newsweek Magazine" and has been covering the Vatican in the press for over 25 years.
